    I’m glad to see UCAS still up right at the top in both categories. I used to use the NUS site for quite a few queries, but it just didn’t cut the mustard – at least not for me..

    TheStudentRoom definately deserves its place at the top. However, for those of you that are interested. http://www.StudentCreche.co.uk looks like a very promising site.

    No great surprise to see UCAS and TSR at the top. Recently, I’ve also started using http://www.StudentCreche.co.uk It’s pretty similar to TSR, but it’s much more cleaner etc. Coincidently, Aadil (above poster) has also mentioned it.
